[D] [G]
Long time ago when I was a young boy, I saw that moon in the euphony on the mountain,
[C]
staring my [G] island by and round me, [Am]
and I felt a yearning [D] for that great adventure.
[G]
So many nights I woke up, out of a dream, a dream of blue seas, [C]
white [G] sand,
hair of dandelions, [Am] butterflies, and [D] beautiful warm holiday.
[G]
Son [D] of [G] Jamaica, the dreams of my Laika, [C] our love is [G] my sweet [Am]
memory.
[D] [G]
Son of Jamaica, blue day in my Laika, [D]
[C] someday [G] I'll return, [Am] wait and see.
[D]
Far may the sand man [G] I'm happy with you, [D]
he shall be loving [G] and true.
Oh, [Em] I shall love [G] my Laika [Em] with all of [G] my heart, I [C] will always [G] be faithful [F] and true.
[D]
Yes, yes.
[A]
And now as I grew older, this burning desire became so strong that I [E] bought me [D] a ticket to fly over.
[E] [A] And then I found [B] you, and we fell [E] in eternal love right from the [A] beginning.
Stars falling down [E] from the [A] sleepy lagoon, palms swaying under the [E] moon,
[D]
and we swimming [Bm] out [A] into the calm crystal sea.
[Bm]
In that fateful [E] night, I thought to [A] myself, I'll [E] do [A] everything I can, save up every dime,
[E] [A] and one day [D] I'll return, [A] come back home to you, [E] and then [Bm] I'll stay forever, [E] forever.
